Moore Threads, the Chinese GPU manufacturer, has announced a significant update to its driver software, adding support for DirectX 12. This update is available for its MTT S80 and MTT S70 GPUs, which were previously lacking this crucial API support.
The new driver, version 270.90-alpha, allows users to run modern games and applications that require DirectX 12, enhancing the overall gaming experience. This update comes after two years of anticipation from the gaming community, as Moore Threads initially launched the MTT S80 and MTT S70 without DirectX 12 support.
With this update, Moore Threads aims to improve the performance and compatibility of its GPUs, making them more competitive in the market. The company has also launched an "Alpha Line" program, inviting gamers to test the new driver and provide feedback to help accelerate the development process.
While the performance of the MTT S80 and MTT S70 GPUs still lags behind some of the top GPUs from AMD and Nvidia, this update is a step in the right direction. Moore Threads is committed to continuous improvement and hopes to close the performance gap with future updates.
